Yes, Ellen White does counsel believers to wait patiently, not to fail or be discouraged, and to trust that God has His plans all arranged. Here are some of her statements on this topic: - "We cannot always see His plans; we must wait patiently their unfolding and not mar and destroy them. He will reveal them to us in His own good time." (Testimonies for the Church, vol. 5, p. 348.1) - "Though we can not see the definite outcome of affairs, or discern the purpose of God's providences, we are not to cast away our confidence. Remembering the tender mercies of the Lord, we should cast our care upon Him, and with patience wait for His salvation." (Christ’s Object Lessons, p. 60.4) - "After doing what you can, wait for the Lord, declaring His faithfulness, and He will bring His word to pass. Wait, not in fretful anxiety, but in undaunted faith and unshaken trust." (Testimonies for the Church, vol. 7, p. 245.2) - "Had it not been for such portions of Scripture, admonishing them to wait with patience and to hold fast their confidence in God's word, their faith would have failed in that trying hour." (The Great Controversy, p. 393.1) - "It sometimes seems hard to wait patiently till God's time comes to vindicate the right. But I have been shown that if we become impatient we lose a rich reward." (Testimonies for the Church, vol. 3, p. 327.2) These statements confirm that Ellen White encourages patience, perseverance, and trust in God's providence, even when His plans are not immediately clear. She emphasizes not to become discouraged, as God is wise and has everything arranged according to His purpose. References: - White, E. G. (1885).
